Flask Python, trying to return list or dict to Ajax call

Question

Within a Flask app, I have the following ajax call:

    $.ajax({
            url: \"{{ url_for( \'bookings.get_customer\' ) }}\",
            type: \"POST\",

josonify works..but if you intend to just pass an array without the 'results' key, you can use json library from python. The following conversion works for me..

 import json

 @app.route('/test/json')
 def test_json():
 list = [
        {'a': 1, 'b': 2},
        {'a': 5, 'b': 10}
       ]
 return json.dumps(list)
